Whats this thing?

Post by wheresMyLid »

Hey guys installed steel braided brake lines (2010 ZX6R) the other week and managed to find this thing dangling down after we removed the original lines. We zipped tied it out of the way and forgot about it as we went through the fun process of bleeding the lines
As far as I can tell its not connected to the headlights or indicators as everything is working fine. Can anyone tell me where its supposed to be hooked up and stored or if its actually supposed to be plugged in to something :?
It looks like a mini usb cable that you could connect a laptop to or something from what I can gather.
Cheers

Hey I told you not to ask......


Ok, I know because when I bought Glens ZRX down in Melbourne, it had one. The seller wanted to remove it, but Glen wouldn't hear of it.........

You did ask Glen.... :)
